General Information

Community Use of Schools is an initiative that supports access to school spaces outside of school hours for not-for-profit community groups. In recognition of the benefits associated with the community's use of school space, the Ministry of Education has developed a "Community Use of Schools program."  The Lambton Kent District School Board encourages the community's participation in the use of schools for educational purposes as permitted under the Education Act and the policy of The Lambton Kent District School Board.

The Lambton Kent District School Board operates 55 elementary schools and 13 secondary schools, available for rent to your group.

To find a school in your area, click on the Elementary or Secondary school links to the left or above.
